I'm a huge fan of prerunner bumpers, but that thing you have drawn up is straight up ugly. It's harder to pull of a clean looking prerunner bumper on a large truck like a superduty. A lot of the bumpers use small tubing and it doesn't look proportional to the size of the truck.

Here's the bumper style I ended up with on mine. I like the light/bar prerunner setups but really just did not see anything I liked for these, just went with a simple light bar setup...






Here's the Pro-Comp prerunner bar I had on my ranger...

 

well, due to the death threats that were sent to me and yalls input, I will not be going with a prerunner.......
well, I need to do something about my rear bumper.... here are my options
1. replace the chrome one
2. paint it
3. 2008 bumper
4. kinda feeling some chrome cleviss and my farmers plate on this one

 

paint it

 

look at a after market fuel pump...
this will take air out of fuel and filter down to 10 micron and some come with adjustable regulator..

I have installed the air dog two kit...c/w reg

the installation was not easy like i thought ....the fuel lines have to be modified...
See my installation post

Little Luke, I like that rear bumper posted in that pic. Looks nice on there.

 

well, xcal2 is on the way, along with 6.4 banjo bolts and the upgraded fuel regulator kit. Guess I need to go on an get the stuff for the ccv reroute mod, I've got oil everywhere around the boots.

Anybody made there own egr delete? I've read about people modifying the stock cooler to block off the exhaust flow, anywrite ups on this? I came across an egr cooler for cheap, and can tig.

I'm cheap when it comes to my toys, it's in my nature. Plus like the whole fabrication challenge of these things.

nvm, just found the how too for the egr delete!

 

Sounds like a good start bud. Just weld the freeze plugs in the end of the egr cooler. Make sure for the end that attaches to the downpipe to set it in 1/4" or so and FILL that whole area with weld, the up-pipe gets pretty warm and you dont want that blowing in.

 

That looks nice. I'd go matching paint. I notice the bumper on the front has bars around the head lights. My uncle's F-250 has that and I hate it. It reflects a little bit of the light back to me and just looks weird. I think the pre-runner you mocked up has potential, but you'd need to make sure it looks proportionate to the truck.

 

should I try and clean out the egr cooler before welding it shut? guy had it on his truck for about a month. It's not to dirty, but still cwould hate for something to happen and that crap gets into the coolant system. I bought the cooler and the down pipe for $25 shipped!

 

No don't waste your time. Weld it up and be done with it. If anything fails, it will just fill with cooalnt, it's not like it will be circulating around cleaning the cooler out. Plus you're putting a coolant filter on down the road anyways right?
